Lesson Introduction

Welcome! Today, we're going to delve into the crucial operations associated with Strings in Go. Strings are fundamental in most programming languages as they are used for displaying and manipulating textual data. In this lesson, you'll learn about the basic string operations in Go, such as concatenation, comparison, and the use of common functions from the strings package.

Revising String Concatenation

Even though we already know what concatenation is and how it works, revisiting it strengthens our understanding! Concatenation — the process of joining items together — is a principal string operation. In Go, we achieve string concatenation by using the + operator.

In this case, "Hello, " and "World!" were combined to form the string "Hello, World!".

Comparing Strings

There are often times when we need to compare strings. Fortunately, in Go, the simple comparison operators == and < work perfectly fine.
